SNMP v1/v2c/v3 Support Options
Enable the SNMPv1/v2c options to allow entering read and read/write community strings.
Enable the SNMPv3 options to allow entering read and read/write user names and passwords. These
entries are de-coupled from the standard radio user names and passwords. SNMPv3 provides full
management security.
SNMP Traps
SNMP traps alert the central network management system with important issues about the radio
system. Trap filters are set on the Traps Configuration page (Figure 17).
Trap support for all versions of SNMP are provided and can be independently enabled. Enter the IP
address to which the traps are directed in the Trap Destination IP Address field. The Ethernet port
designated for management must be connected to the network to allow trap information to reach the
designated IP address. In a bridged network, this may not require special network settings. In a routed
network, the connected router must have a defined path for the IP address.
Figure 17 Trap Configuration page
The following traps are available:
• Authentication Trap: This is an SNMP standard trap when password information for SNMP is
incorrect. This can help identify unwanted intrusions into the management system and for
diagnosis of SNMP issues for valid users.
Note: MIB files downloadable from the radio are listed on the File Transfer Page. You can
also find MIB files for your radio on exaltcom.com
. MIBs for Exalt radios are model specific.
Note: Users are encouraged to avoid enabling SNMPv1/v2c support due to known security
loopholes in these protocols.
